this guy does melodies nobody knew existed

[@seanicejedidiah7926]

Bro!!! I feel you on another level!

[@benja303]

He understood music at a level way beyond his years. I thought I knew everything about music when I was younger but now that I’m older I’m realizing I am just now barley scratching the surface

[@mattjr4206]

Exactly

[@Africanbeautyy93]

Seriously! He is a legend in the making!

[@thato4579]

Powerful imagination!

[@harrisong953]

Rema is so down to earth and humble, he doesn’t forget where he came from unlike other artists who once they get fame loose they minds. Notice how everything he plans on doing in future involves Nigeria and AfricaA great example for today’s yutes

Rema is deep. He is deeper than what he sings. There is something about him...amazing.

[@lolaispure4296]

Yes absolutely. You are very deep too for even seeing it. It looks like he sings youthful sensless things but the depth of the melodies and the atmosphere he creates makes me think he has a lot of spiritual knowledge.

[@qayathetruestepper]

I totally agree. This brother is a true incarnation of divine (pun intended) wisdom. Divine Ikubor AKA Rema is a guy that has so much depth and I’m so grateful to be part of the same generation as him. 🙏🏾

Wise beyond his years. He really surprised me with his thought process. I will be following your journey. One thing I find very interesting about him is using his Nigerian accent through out the whole interview and didn't even try to switch once, very refreshing.

He has paid a price for what you all are hearing. To the average person listening, you hear vibes, to those who understand, you realise that his depth is born out of spirituality and diligence... One thing is for sure, He aint even started... y'all just watch out and learn from this young man. NO PAIN, NO GAIN! He is entering into the RHEMA!

Keep it up...And stay off those vices you said you don't embrace in the beginning of this interview, except of course, women...You can't escape those ones in this industry, until you quit & stay focused on one woman...That is if they let you though!
